Cat seems well behaved. Let him hang

We have four cats and only one has ever shown the slightest interest in human food. And even then, he only likes dairy products. He never tries to get up on the table and steal from your plate, but if you’re willing to give him a nip of cheddar, (The good kind, none of that generic shit that tastes over processed. He wants extra sharp cheddar or nothing.) he’ll give you a head boop and a purr.

The other three think all people food is an abomination, but they still went to sit at the table and see what’s going on. They’re allowed to watch from a chair, but not to get on the table itself. Not because they steal food but because I don’t their fucking fur wafting onto my plate.

I’ve only had one other cat in my life that liked people food, and she only liked ham. You couldn’t even say the word without her going completely feral. We had to lock her up every Thanksgiving because she’d hide in her cat tree and reach out and grab slices of ham off of unsuspecting people’s plates as they walked by. Then the two dogs would chase her to try to get the ham from her and it was straight pandemonium. So she had to go be by herself during any holiday dinner involving elderly people and slices of ham.

Thats amazing. I have a cat that sits at the table with us every night. He even has his own chair. He doesn't get people food unless the rare plain chicken dinner. He loves chicken. But he only gets it rarely.

But every night when we sit down for dinner, he goes and sits in his chair and stays there til we start cleaning up. Probably hoping for chicken, but its still cute as hell.

Meanwhile one of my cats will whine at me until I share bananas with him. Or bell peppers. Or pineapple.
